CoreWeave Debug Bundle

Overview

Collect GPU node health, Kubernetes pod status, event logs, and API connectivity into a single diagnostic archive for CoreWeave support tickets. This bundle captures cluster-level resource allocation, failed pod logs, GPU device plugin state, and network reachability so support engineers can diagnose infrastructure issues without requesting additional information. Useful when GPU pods are stuck pending, inference workloads OOM, or node autoscaling behaves unexpectedly.

Debug Collection Script

bash
#!/bin/bash
set -euo pipefail
BUNDLE="debug-coreweave-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)"
mkdir -p "$BUNDLE"

# Environment check
echo "=== CoreWeave Debug Bundle ===" | tee "$BUNDLE/summary.txt"

  https://api.coreweave.com/v1/namespaces 2>/dev/null || echo "000")
echo "API Status: HTTP $HTTP" >> "$BUNDLE/summary.txt"

# Cluster state

# Rate limit headers

tar -czf "$BUNDLE.tar.gz" "$BUNDLE" && rm -rf "$BUNDLE"
echo "Bundle: $BUNDLE.tar.gz"

Analyzing the Bundle

bash
tar -xzf debug-coreweave-*.tar.gz
cat debug-coreweave-*/summary.txt          # API + env status at a glance
grep -i "error\|fail\|oom" debug-coreweave-*/events.txt  # Critical events
cat debug-coreweave-*/gpu-allocation.txt   # GPU resource pressure

Common Issues

| Symptom | Check in Bundle | Fix | |---------|----------------|-----| | GPU pods stuck Pending | gpu-allocation.txt shows 0 allocatable GPUs | Request quota increase or switch to available GPU type | | OOMKilled on inference pod | events.txt for OOMKilled entries | Increase memory limits in pod spec; check model size vs allocated RAM | | Node NotReady | nodes.txt status column | Check events.txt for kubelet issues; contact CoreWeave if persistent | | API returns 401 | summary.txt shows HTTP 401 | Regenerate API key at CoreWeave dashboard; verify COREWEAVE_API_KEY is set | | NVIDIA device plugin missing | gpu-plugin.txt empty or error | Verify namespace kube-system has device plugin DaemonSet; redeploy if missing |

Automated Health Check

typescript
async function checkCoreWeave(): Promise<void> {
  const key = process.env.COREWEAVE_API_KEY;
  if (!key) { console.error("[FAIL] COREWEAVE_API_KEY not set"); return; }

  const res = await fetch("https://api.coreweave.com/v1/namespaces", {
    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${key}` },
  });
  console.log(`[${res.ok ? "OK" : "FAIL"}] API: HTTP ${res.status}`);

  const limit = res.headers.get("x-ratelimit-remaining");
  if (limit) console.log(`[INFO] Rate limit remaining: ${limit}`);
}
checkCoreWeave();
